The earliest catalog I have that shows the #38 case is 1888. I didn't list it because it's a much later year than the gun. It's described as "New Pressed Seamless Case. No stitched seams to rip. The body is made of one solid piece of leather, molded into shape, and supported by a light but firm frame of three-ply veneer of hard-wood. The corners are very strong by reason of the rounded or curved shape. The top will carry seventy-five shells. The best case in the world". The price was $12.00.
